My worries were proved correct as Canada drew against Japan 12 - 12
. I got in from work right at the end of the game and thought the bet was won when the Cannucks kicked the ball dead with 80 mins up on the clock. The ref allowed the line out however, and after several agonising minutes, sod's law dictated that Japan scored and kicked a tricky conversion to level the game and lose the bet.
For me, this selection / outcome raises an interesting question. I was uneasy backing Canada but chose too as they were a system pick. At what point however, should a follower of a system over ride the system's selection? Would be interested in other forumites opinions on this (if anybody else is reading).
Romania just about scraped home against Portugal to win 14 - 10
